Sebastian POV

The moment we arrived at Eloune City, the atmosphere shifted. The sprawling, chaotic streets buzzed with life, but it wasn’t the comforting hum of a thriving community—it was an undercurrent of danger, of tension waiting to snap. The kind of place where you couldn’t trust the shadows or the smiles.

None of us stepped out of the cars immediately. This wasn’t the kind of city to take chances in, especially with a group like ours. Royals and guards tend to attract attention, and not the good kind. I scanned the streets through the tinted windows. People moved in clusters, their eyes sharp and mistrusting.

“We’ve got a few locations to check,” Celine says, breaking the heavy silence. Her voice is bright, almost hopeful, and when I turn to look at her, she is smiling faintly. She has been reading through the information we gathered, piecing together possible leads.

“It’s not about just knowing where to go,” I reply, my voice low. “It’s about keeping you safe. Places like this.

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   A Part Of Me

    Sebastian POV This is a place where shadows thrive, and we are stepping right into the darkness.This city operates by its own rules, a shadowy underworld where anything illegal is not just tolerated but thrives. Every step here feels precarious, and I’m on edge as we step into the shop. I keep Celine close, my hand resting protectively on her lower back as my eyes scan the room.The shop’s interior is as grimy as the city itself, dimly lit with flickering overhead lights that buzz faintly. Shelves line the walls, cluttered with all manner of strange and unidentifiable objects. The air smells stale, with a faint metallic tang that makes my nostrils flare.At the counter sits Austin, a wiry man with sharp eyes that flicker with intelligence—and greed. He rises slowly, his movements deliberate, a sly smile spreading across his face.“King Sebastian,” he drawls, his tone both mocking and intrigued. “Not who I expected to walk into my fine establishment.” He chuckles, leaning on the count

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   The Auction

    Celine POVWe arrived at a private hotel, a quiet, unassuming place where questions weren’t asked and privacy was paramount. The staff didn’t so much as blink as we checked in, their professionalism masking any curiosity they might have had. After a modest meal and a brief moment of calm, we began to prepare.Sebastian had tried everything to obscure my identity—to mask my scent, dampen my aura—but nothing seemed to work. My unique essence, the unmistakable mark of who I was, lingered stubbornly. His frustration was evident, though he tried to hide it behind reassuring words.“It will be fine,” I whisper as we step out. “We just have to trust this will be enough.”His eyes meet mine, steady but laced with worry. “Just stay close,” he says, his tone firm.“I know,” I reply softly. “Stay close. Don’t wander off. Don’t ask anything too obvious.”He gives a small, tight smile, but the worry doesn’t leave his expression. “I’m just trying to keep you safe,” he murmurs as we join the growing

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Seeing Him

    Celine POV The first page of the book I hold is a photograph of a woman, captured as if she were an object on display. Beneath her image is a list of attributes, each detail meticulously cataloged to appeal to potential buyers. The entire thing makes my stomach churn. How much of myself had been reduced to something similar when I was sold? What did my page say?The thought gnaws at me, a dark curiosity I can’t suppress. Part of me wants to rip through every book in this room until I find it—to see what they wrote about me.“Don’t,” Sebastian’s voice cuts through my thoughts. He gently takes the book from my hands, his touch firm but careful. “Try not to get caught up in things that won’t change anything now,” he murmurs, his tone gentle, but his words strike a nerve.He’s wrong. It matters to me.Before I can respond, a voice booms across the room.“This is your ten-minute warning before the auction begins,” a man announces from the stage. His tone is smooth, almost cheerful, as if t

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Always Searching

    Dolton POVThe sharp knock on the door yanks me out of a restless sleep, my heart hammering in my chest. I groan, dragging myself upright, each movement weighed down by the ache that’s been my constant companion since she was taken. The pain isn’t just physical—it’s the raw, unrelenting agony of being severed from her, my mate. I thought holding onto the bond without rejection was the right thing to do, a way to keep her connected to me. But now I wonder if she’s enduring this same torment.How is she coping? Does she even know I’m still searching?“What?” I bark toward the door, my voice hoarse, and it creaks open to reveal Asline standing there, her expression a mixture of hesitation and resolve.“Alpha Dolton,” she says, dipping her head slightly in deference. “There’s still no confirmation whether she’s being sold tonight.”I exhale sharply, the weight of the news settling over me like a suffocating blanket. Of course, there isn’t. It’s always the same—the thread of hope dangled ju

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Finding Her

    Dolton POV “Have you considered that she’s no longer in the Werewolf Kingdom?” Beta Oliver’s voice cuts through the hum of the car engine. His tone is cautious, as though bracing for the storm he knows his words might provoke.I stiffen, my gaze fixed on the passing blur of buildings through the window. The thought pierces through the edges of my mind, uninvited and unwelcome. I don’t want to consider it. I can’t.“If that were the case,” I mutter, my voice low and edged with barely restrained anger, “she’d be dead by now.”Oliver doesn’t back down, though his shrug is almost nonchalant. “You’re assuming she’d be sold to vampires, and even then, it’s unlikely. Someone like her—someone with what she is—would be worth far more alive than dead.”His words ring with a bitter truth. He’s not wrong. Keeping her alive would serve them better, whoever they are. My jaw clenches as I turn back to the window, watching the crumbling infrastructure of the outskirts of the city melt into the more i

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Fighting

    *Please note* If you began reading the book before this chapter was released, it has been edited and changed. I advise you re-read all the chapters. Going forward this book will be updated 3-5 chapters a day.Celine POVOne moment, I'm inside, wrapped in Dolton's arms, then I'm not; I’m pulled outside into the dimly lit alley, and the cold air feels like a slap against my skin. Dolton’s grip on my arm is firm, his urgency clear. “We need to leave now, before they realize you’re gone and lock you up again,” he insists, tugging me further into the shadows.Before I can respond, a thunderous roar shakes the narrow space, echoing off the crumbling brick walls. I’m thrown backward by the sudden commotion, my breath catching as I see Sebastian shift, his massive form materializing in an instant, radiating raw, dangerous power.Dolton doesn’t hesitate—he shifts too, his wolf form towering, feral, and ready for a fight, why wouldn't he shift further, into his Lycan? Their growls and roars rev

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Trying

    Celine POV“We need to go,” Joseph says, urgency lacing his tone. “People heard the commotion. Some recognized her and started asking about her owner.”Sebastian’s arm wraps protectively around my waist, his hand firm and steady. “Let’s go,” he says, guiding me forward.But before I can take a step, Dolton pulls me away with a growl. “Don’t touch her!” His eyes blaze as he glares at Sebastian. “It’s her choice.”“I’ll touch her because she’s mine,” Sebastian snarls, stepping closer, his presence overpowering.Dolton’s lip curls, his voice low and dangerous. “I’m her first mate. You’re second. That bond means nothing.”The alley grows colder, the tension between them crackling like wildfire. I stand between them, torn, trying to figure out how to stop this before it spirals into something none of us can take back.This is spiraling out of control. I take a deep breath, trying to think of something—anything—that will stop them before they tear each other apart.“Some mate you are,” Seba

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Wanting To Hate Him

    Sebastian POVWe return to the hotel, and the moment we step inside, Dolton follows us, uninvited, into the room. My hand lingers on the door as I resist the urge to slam it in his face. Instead, I close it quietly, though the tension in my chest burns hotter with each second he stands here. My gaze locks onto him, a glare sharp enough to cut. He shouldn’t be here. He shouldn’t even think he has a right to see her, not after everything.It doesn’t matter to me that he’s been searching for her, not when he’s the reason she needed saving in the first place. He stood by while his family hurt her, while they broke her. The fact he’s trying to act like a hero now just fuels my disgust.Dolton’s eyes shift to Celine, and his voice trembles as he asks, “Where were you?”Her gaze drops to the floor, her voice quiet but steady. “With someone called Dale. He bought me to use my magic—to help him win wars.”Dolton stiffens at her words, his brows furrowing. “Which pack, Celine? I’ve searched thr

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Forever

    Helios’s POVI carefully take Clara from Dolton, cradling her against my chest as if she’s the most precious treasure I’ve ever held, and she is. Her delicate warmth radiates into me, a fragile yet unwavering presence in my arms, melting through the lingering hardness that once defined who I was. Her steady, peaceful breathing calms something deep inside me, quieting the restless beast I had always been.As I study her tiny face, with soft cheeks and a delicate nose, the innocence reflected there stirs something unfamiliar in my chest, a fierce protectiveness unlike anything I have ever known. The heart that once burned with obsession, possessiveness, and dominance now fills with a different kind of fire, pure and gentle. It’s startling yet comforting, reshaping who I am from the core outward.Instinctively, almost without thinking, I begin to hum softly, a melody from a lifetime ago, one I barely remember, yet somehow feels right to shar

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Together

    6 Years LaterJonathan POV“Caleb, hold still,” I murmur, tightening my grip gently around my three-year-old son, who wriggles impatiently in my arms. His soft golden hair tickles my chin as he peers eagerly around the room, blue eyes wide with excitement. Aurora streaks past, her small dragon form shimmering in hues of violet and silver, scales glinting under the soft lights as she darts playfully around us.Celine laughs softly as she watches Aurora, her eyes filled with warmth. Sebastian stands near her, arms crossed over his chest, a proud smile on his face. Beside them, Dolton cradles his newborn daughter, Clara, just a week old, her tiny features serene as she sleeps peacefully against his chest.The room is alive with happiness, joy bouncing off the walls as we prepare for the celebration. I find myself smiling, my heart swelling. It wasn’t so long ago that I thought I’d lost everything. But here, surrounded by these people,

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Baby

    Sebastian’s POVThree months laterI’m flying as fast as I can, the wind cutting sharp against my scales.I left the kingdom earlier to meet Aarmon and collect two feeders for Celine. Her pregnancy has made her need blood more frequently, and I have no idea how she will be after the baby is born. I planned to return days ago, but Aarmon ran into issues with the vampires, delaying everything. Now I’m rushing back, and the only thing I know is that Celine has gone into labor.I abandoned the cars hours ago, there wasn’t time to waste. The soldiers will ensure the feeders arrive safely. Right now, the only thing that matters is getting to her.Helios pushes forward, impatient, and I don’t stop him. He’s always faster than me in the air, and this time, I need that speed. He focuses, his instincts sharper, his wings slicing through the sky with powerful strokes. At least this way, if we’re late,

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Celebration

    Celine’s POVThe grand hall of the Dragon Kingdom is alive with celebration, the golden glow of torches casting flickering light over the towering stone walls. It’s strange how quickly everything has settled, how the chaos of battle has faded into something almost distant, like a dream that we all woke up from. The weight of it still lingers, of course, but tonight is not about that. Tonight is about the fact that we are here. Alive. Stronger than before.The past week has been a blur, filled with moments of reflection and change. Somehow when Helios takes control, I can hear Sebastian in my mind. It's strange but nice. Jonathan has embraced both sides of himself more than ever, his fae and merfolk magic flowing together like they were always meant to be one. Dolton has grown quieter, more thoughtful, as if the shadows that once burst from him still whisper at the edge of his mind, not in a bad way though. Leif is adjusting, still finding his place among us

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Home

    Sebastian POVThe cars come to a stop, and I glance out the window, relief flooding through me at the sight of home.Dolton nudges my arm with a playful grin. “You should fly up with Celine. It’ll be quicker than waiting in the cars.”I shake my head firmly. “No, we should all arrive together.”Dolton’s smirk widens, mischief clear in his eyes. “Alright, then how about Helios takes her up instead? I’m sure he’d love to stretch his wings.”I roll my eyes. “How is that any different?”Dolton shrugs, chuckling softly. “You said you missed home. I’d bet Helios does too—this is his kingdom after all. Maybe he deserves to arrive first.”Before I can respond, Helios takes Dolton’s suggestion as permission, surging forward eagerly and pushing my consciousness to the back. My body shifts abruptly in the car, a wave of laughter erupting from bo

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Something Simple

    Dolton POVWe’re sitting in a clearing, resting before continuing our journey back to the Dragon Kingdom. The weight I’ve carried since the battle finally feels lighter as laughter fills the air. Around me, faces are relaxed for the first time in what feels like forever. Sebastian sits close to Celine, his arm protectively around her as people continue to celebrate her pregnancy, teasing him about becoming a father. Their smiles are contagious, and I find myself genuinely laughing alongside them.Yet even as I laugh, Julius remains uneasy, pacing restlessly inside my mind. I try to push the unease away, but it’s difficult when Julius is this restless. I glance over to Leif, sitting quietly, staring off into the trees. There’s still so much I don’t know about him, so much he probably doesn’t even know about himself.Leaning closer, I nudge his shoulder gently. “You okay?”Leif blinks, pulled from his thoughts

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Seeking Answers

    Jonathan POVI sit alone in the quiet car, the journals spread across my lap. My fingers flip through the pages slowly, frustration building with every page turn. I’d told the others I needed silence to focus, but the truth is, I just didn’t want them to see how much this is getting to me.I’m trying to find answers for Dolton, something that can explain what’s happening to him, but each page I read feels emptier than the last. My heart thuds with a heavy anxiety as I rub my temples.There’s almost nothing here about Lycans. The few mentions I’ve found are vague or useless, and there’s not a single line about the Shadow of the Moon or why there can suddenly be two Lycans. It’s as if the writers deliberately avoided the topic, which only makes me feel more unsettled.I lean my head back against the seat, taking a slow breath, and close my eyes. Dolton deserves answers, he’s struggling with something non

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Returning

    Sebastian POVWe left the Werewolf Kingdom first thing in the morning. I want to get home. I’ve spent far too long away from my kingdom; Helios is restless, and so am I.It’ll take about three days to get back, but since it’s only our group traveling, all my men can drive, which means we won’t be slowed down by walking. Dolton chose to ride in another car with Leif, wanting to spend some time speaking with him alone. Jonathan opted to ride separately, claiming he needed quiet to focus on reading through the journals.I understand why Jonathan turns to the journals for answers, but even I doubt they can solve everything. I know he’s hoping to find something—anything—to help Dolton. Finding out Leif is directly connected to him, even in death, must be overwhelming, especially when severing their bond might risk both their lives.Still, despite the circumstances, I welcome the chance to spend time alone with Celine.

  • Orphaned Queen Goddess   Secrets

    Celine POVI watch Dolton carefully. He wouldn’t have turned bad, I know it. He wasn’t alone, he had me, Sebastian, and Jonathan. We wouldn’t have let him become something evil.Stepping closer, I gently slip my hand into Dolton’s, trying to calm him. He turns slightly, offering me a faint smile, but the worry in his eyes is unmistakable. He shouldn’t be worried; he has us.“You once mentioned feeling like part of you was missing, like something wasn’t fully there,” his father says from behind the bars, his gaze unwavering. “Do you remember when that began, Dolton?”“No, I don’t,” Dolton snaps sharply.From the other cell, Wes chuckles darkly. “It started when Leif was born. Come on, Dolton, catch up.”Turning sharply, I glare at Wes, and the twisted, evil man mockingly blows me a kiss. My stomach churns with disgust.“Leif is part of you,&
